I am a Second Female Lead
Chapter 28: 10. Jaclyn Eisner

Sheri went at the top of a little mountain closed by at the village to oversee the whole village.

Sheri sits there while assembling her weapons.

Hunter came beside her. "Do you need anything else" Hunter said.

Sheri shakes her head. "I'm sorry because of me you will have to go to war," Sheri said while brandishing her weapon.

Hunter gently shakes his head also and sits next to her.

"Their arrogance has brought us here. So don't worry it's not your fault." Hunter gently said.

Suddenly a distinctive sound of a horn can be heard signaling them that the enemy has arrived.

Lance the leader of the tiger and the female lead together with their underlings arrived outside the village.

Hunter's men are already station inside and outside the village, waiting for the command of Hunter. Sheri and Hunter run toward the entrance of the village. Sheri hides and observed the female lead.

The female lead wears coarse skin of animals exposing some of her smooth skin. She is certainly what the story stated, really beautiful. Sheri rolled her eyes while looking at the female lead and the husband of the female lead. She began to talk to her self.

"Sheri what were you expecting, of course, she's the female lead." Sheri irritably said toward herself.

Sheri didn't come out she just enables Hunter and his men to face them. She wants to see what weapons they have.

The two leaders were growling and hissing toward each other while talking.

"Why did you slaughter my men? The tiger leader asked.

"Your men assaulted my sister while pregnant and then assaulted my woman's place" Hunter fiercely responded.

Sheri is making her bow ready in camouflage. She can launch three arrows in one go thanks to the archery skill of the owner's body. In a sneak attacked. The tiger began attacking the Village. "It's a fireball huh!" Sheri said. Every time someone wants to fling a fireball Sheri keeps on shooting it down.

Sheri gives a whistle sound and all the leopard race starts protecting their nose and face and starts launching a hand made powder bomb. The moment the female leads smell the powder she promptly calls he husband to retreat a few meters away. Since her warning is a little late some tigers were starting to hallucinate and were killed by Hunter's men.

Sheri came out with her mask on and starts giving a signal to take the opportunity to attack.

Hunter covered her, and she went straight toward Lance and place a gun in his head. She looked at the female lead. The female lead was shocked to see someone like her and wearing a soldier uniform. She was stiffened when she saw her uniform. She, being a business tycoon in their world heard many stories of these special forces. They were highly trained since birth. They are also numb when it comes to pain and considered the ultimate weapon a nation can have.

Sheri looked at her without malice nor emotions. She immediately gave a warning.

"You better advise your husband to stop and to never assault this village and get out of their property or else I will make certain your number will be reduced in a way you don't want to," Sheri said.

The female lead eyes looked alarmed. The tiger leader on the other hand was nervous when he saw another woman pointing something toward his wife, and he can sense the fear in his wife's eyes. He was supposed to attacked Sheri but the female lead immediately speak.

She talked to her husband in their own language. After she talked the tiger leader gave a signal to stop. Hunter also went still, he was in awe of the woman who's standing there pointing a gun at his enemy having no fear at all.

The tiger leader believes in his wife and signaled his men to halt.

"Alright, we will leave" the female stutter while talking.

The female mounted at his husband back when he transformed and began to retreat.

All the tiger retreat leaving the leopard race shouting in joy.

The moment she arrived inside the house of Hunter her legs gave way. All her fears that she's holding inside was released, before she falls to the ground. A firm arm holds her waist and supports her to sit down.

Sheri wound was reopened Hunter went to get her first aid and gently remove her jacket and shirt. He slowly cleaned it and bandages it. Sheri winced and looked at Hunter.

"You did good, while ago," Hunter said while bandaging her wound.

"I hope this will be the time they stop harassing your race," Sheri said.

"Definitely you did. You better rest today. It has been a long day. I will wake you up if the food is ready" Hunter gently said.

Sheri nodded and went to her room, and she went to take a nap. She's exhausted, and her body is exhausted.

Hunter went to cooked and when evening came he went to wake up Sheri, but she was fast asleep and didn't wake up. He sits beside her and observed her. His heart beats so fast while looking at her tranquil face. He desires her that's what he knows. She is so brave even though she's smaller than they.

The whole night Hunter stays at her side. When Sheri wakes up the next morning, she felt a sturdy arm in her waist carefully not touching her wound. She turned around almost ready to kill whoever embracing her. She was still when she saw Hunter next to her.

Hunter felt her movement and her eyes slowly opened.

"How are you feeling?" Hunter asked tenderly.

"Good, did something happen yesterday? Sheri asked.

Hunter slowly gets up. Sheri gaped on Hunter's nakedness. "You were shaking yesterday and didn't let go of me, so I just hold you," Hunter said when she saw how she looked at him.

Sheri remembers in her sleep that there is indeed a warm thing holding her when she was feeling cold. "Sorry didn't mean it" Sheri apologized.

"This evening they have a small ceremony. My men want to thank you. But I told them you're not healed yet." Hunter gently said.

He didn't bother dressing up. Sheri, however, was having a hard time making her eyes focus on his face. She's not a teenager this body is already 30 years old. And that manly body makes every woman drool for it.

"Alright," Sheri said But Hunter didn't allow her to move. He prepares everything and went out. Sheri, however, has no choice she cleans herself with a wet towel and slowly changes into jeans and a shirt and went out of the room.

After 2 months of recuperating and staying at Hunter's house. Sheri wanted to look for a cave. The same as what she had before and stayed there. She wants to have her own privacy. She's very much thankfu that the body she's in can't bear any children. The organization, who trained them makes sure they will not have any child left behind.

Hunter and her relationship have become awkward. One is attracted while the other one keeps on denying her feelings of attraction. For the past months, Hunter truly shows he wanted her as a mate.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
